A resilience plan earns its keep when it changes what gets built, funded and maintained. These guides cover the planning itself: setting priorities across hazards, co-designing with residents, building governance that can carry projects for a decade, and planning for heat as seriously as for water.
They are written for the teams that own the work, from municipal staff and port planners to the foundations, companies and universities that depend on the same infrastructure.
